Fiction
Romantasy by Nateera Skye
WILD MAGIC by Nateera Skye – Release date: December 21, 2025. Purchase paperback on Amazon. In Michigan’s Upper Peninsula, little known fantasy writer Ravyn Shaunessy is content to traipse about the boundless world of the imagination safe and cozied in her writing garret with her sweet, slightly mysterious muse-like cat and a little bit of chocolate. But when a company interested in ancient mythologies buys out her publisher, she finds herself pushed into the outside world and partnered with a handsome, enigmatic new coworker, the French Canadian photographer Damien Le Sauvage. Together they must unravel mysteries from thousands of years ago, ones rooted in stories from cultures long lost to the march of modernity. Others are watching, however, their intentions anything but friendly. The first in a series, Wild Magic is an easy-paced story blending contemporary times, folklore and ancient history with a celebration of the beauty found in the woods and wilds all around us.
DREAMINGS by Nateera Skye – Upcoming release. A dream. An ancient land. A man she has yet to know. On the threshold of a world she has yet to understand. Ravyn’s journey continues, this time on dogsled, across a (mostly) frozen inland sea that takes her deeper than she ever imagined into the history of what today is called Michigan’s Upper Peninsula. What she finds reveal things about the peninsula’s present she never even thought to question.
Sweet Country Romance by Nateera Skye
CRANBERRY FALLS by Nateera Skye – Upcoming release. Nature photographer Natalie Reid has finally found independence…and she’s far from ready to relinquish it. Loving life as a single mom and nature photographer in the heart of Michigan’s beautiful Upper Peninsula, Natalie has no time for romance. Even when handsome local fishermen maneuver themselves into the picture. But will a run-in with wolves be just the thing for her change of heart? Probably not.
TRAILS OF THE HEART by Nateera Skye – Upcoming release. After one of Jade’s animal rescues goes awry – with Natalie’s son, no less – Natalie starts to question the wisdom of her recent life choices. Of course an arrogant old flame just happens to turn up at this particular moment complicating things even further. And as far as things are going for Slade, thanks to his unconventional approach to regional Native American history he finds himself in trouble as he takes on some local authorities.
North Country Novels by Linda Cree
